Mastro Livi "Rasoio Italiano" Stainless Damascus Steel: Italian Shave
This Mastro Livi "Rasoio Italiano" is just another proof of the superior craftsmanship achieved by this revered and magnificent Italian artisan and artist. The blade is made of Mastro Livi artisan stainless Damascus steel, that is a Damascus made by using martensitic stainless steels only and no austenitic stainless steel. As such, this Mastro Livi artisan Stainless Damascus steel is suitable for making edges. Super cutting edges, I would add. I know very well how Mastro Livi carbon Damascus steels performs and trying this stainless Damascus steel was a sort of exciting adventure. It certainly is more aggressive than Mastro Livi carbon Damascus and even more aggressive than the stainless steel Mastro Livi uses for the making of his Grifetto. Although it is quite aggressive, it is however smooth, probably a little less aggressive than Damasteel, the industrial stainless Damascus steel Mastro Livi uses for some of his razors. And I must add, I like Mastro Livi artisan Stainless Damascus Steel better. This was a genuine Italian shave: not only an "Italian Razor" made by the finest and best Italian razor maker, but also one of the best Italian shaving soaps around: Boellis Panama 1924. Then a Mastro Livi badger brush, my pre-shave oil and my Thyrrenus after shave. I truly enjoyed my super luxurious Italian shave: what a razor!
